/4 Cup Granulated sugar  
/2 Teaspoon Ground cinnamon  
/4 Teaspoon Freshly grated nutmeg  
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.  
Season the squash with olive oil and salt. Place on a roasting pan and roast  
for 1 hour. Remove and cool completely. Place the pie shell in the oven and  
bake for 10 minutes. Remove the pie crust from the oven and cool. Peel away  
the skin and remove the center seeds of the roasted butternut squash. Place  
the squash in a large mixing bowl. Mash the squash until smooth. Add the  
cane syrup, the sugar, pinch of salt, cinnamon, and vanilla. Mix well. Add  
the eggs and egg yolks and mix well. Stir in the milk and whisk well. Pour  
into the pie shell. Cover the edges of the crust with aluminum foil. Reduce  
the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Bake for 40 minutes. Remove the foil  
and continue to bake for 25 minutes, until the center is slightly firm.  
Remove and cool on a wire rack. The pie will still continue to cook while  
cooling. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled. Slice into  
individual servings and place on serving plates. Garnish with a drizzle of  
Caramel sauce and a dollop of Spiced Cream.  
Yield: 8 servings  
SPICED CREAM:  
Beat the cream with an electric mixer on high speed in a large mixing bowl  
for about 2 minutes. Add the sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg and beat again  
until the mixture thickens and forms stiff peaks, another 1 to 2 minutes.
